MEDIUM-RISK RL-2 KIT VERIFICATION

STEP 1: Select Transfer Method

Option 1:

Select the method you normally use for transferring bulk solutions when compounding TPNs:
An Automated Compounder
A Transfer Set
A 60 mL Syringe
Other

Option 2:

Select the source and size. If you are using a compounder, select Sterile Water for Injection and the bag or bottle size you normally use. If you select any other method of bulk transfer, you may select Normal Saline or Sterile Water for Injection, and indicate any bag or bottle size which is 50mL or greater.

Option 3: Select Final Container for TPN Simulation

This bag or bottle will be the final container for your simulated TPN. If you use an automated compounder, you must use a compounder bag. If you use both bags and bottles in your practice, select Bag for this option, select Yes for Option 4, and select the bottle in option 6. This allows you to incorporate both types of final container into your verification exercise.

Enter size of final container
mL
(must be 100mL or larger).

Select one:
Bag
Bottle

Option 4: (Only applicable if a you did NOT select a transfer set in Option 1, and you wish to incorporate the use of a transfer set into your verification.)

Choose Yes If:

connecting tubing of any kind and/or
using transfer sets commonly in your practice, but you are using a compounder

use a bag in Option 1 and wish to incorporate the use of a bottle, as well

Do you connect a transfer set to the final container and prime?
Yes

Option 5:

Do you use dispensing pins in your institution?

Option 8:

Choose this option if you wish to include PCA cassette preparation or increase the complexity of your procedure by including syringe preparation.

From the bag/bottle which does not have a transfer set attached, do you withdraw three each 10mL aliquots?
